Gophers men's basketball coach Richard Pitino has secured his second 2015 recruit.

Dupree McBrayer, a versatile guard out of New Jersey, verbally committed to the Gophers on Friday evening. Evan Daniels of Scout.com was the first to report McBrayer's decision. McBrayer, a senior at Elizabeth St. Patrick's School, also considered Creighton, Seton Hall, Providence and Pittsburgh.

McBrayer joins four-star Virginia point guard Kevin Dorsey, who committed last month. Rivals.com calls the 6-4 McBrayer a three-star athlete.
